C.Y.B.O.R.I.N.A.

Alright...here's my first drawing of 2011!!! And no...this isn't a new character of mine; this is my girlfriend! I've finally gone completely mad and I've sent my girlfriend to Femmetech Laboratories for the complete cybernetic makeover package! So, I present to you my new and improved girlfriend...she is no longer known as Sherina (her real name), she is now a CYBorg Optimized for Recon, Infiltration, and Nocturnal Assassination...she is....C.Y.B.O.R.I.N.A.!!! Dun dun DUNNNNN!!!!

Nah...I'm just kidding! Tomorrow is my girlfriend's birthday (Jan. 8) and this is just one of my gifts to her. Before she was my girlfriend, I always wondered what would a potential girlfriend think of my weird fetish of cyborg/robo women...I even thought that they'd go running for the hills once they found out that I liked to draw half-human, half machine females that are sensationally built! (no pun intended) Well, not only is my girlfriend totally cool with my strange hobby...not to mention that she loves stuff like action/sci-fi flicks, cartoons, and watching football and wrestling with me...but a few months ago she asked if I would draw her as a cyborg; she originally just asked for mechanical hands. I was gonna draw her for Christmas, but I didn't get the inspiration in time enough so I figured I'd draw her for her birthday. For those of you that know my M.O. when it comes to cyber chicks...I just had to go all out; I couldn't just stop at mechanical hands!!!

So, here's my depiction of my girlfriend as a cyborg...C.Y.B.O.R.I.N.A. (Special thanks to the Cyborg Name Decoder website for the cool acronym! [link]) I got this pose from one of her Lane Bryant catalogs that she had lying around her apartment that she let me have...yep, my baby is a BBW! (Big, beautiful woman for those of you that don't know) As for her design, you make recognize some detail that I Frankensteined from some of my other existing cyborg OCs...much of it came from this gift art that I did a few years ago I chose the colors green and yellow because 1.) green is Sherina's favorite color, and 2.) being from Wisconsin originally she's a Green Bay Packers fan! You see her hair? That's the hair that I originally wanted for Nikki to have when I first designed her...I wasn't able to properly draw an Afro-puff and it ended up coming out like this so I decided to just give Nikki a ponytail instead. I had fun with this one...and who knows...maybe we'll see C.Y.B.O.R.I.N.A. team up with Diamond, Raina, Simone, or some of my other cybergals!

So here's to 2011...once again buckle up really tight...because it's time for another go round on Mr. Marcus's Wild Ride!!!
